What's Your Story

Take your personal experiences and turn them into an entertaining, engaging, and funny performance!

In this workshop, you will learn the basic elements of storytelling and solo performance. This workshop will help you get more comfortable being yourself as you share stories about yourself. Through verbal and written exercises we'll work on point of view, character, stage presence, confidence, and finding the truth in the tale. Please bring a pen and notebook to class as well as any ideas of stories you'd like to turn into a performance piece.
